Ke Biu Doh

Story written by Kristopher Hall

No child should have to spend a day in tears because the other children will not play with him, and certainly no child should have to wake to this reality every day of his young life. It is hard to imagine what a child must think when he is shunned because of a physical deformity he cannot change, and it is heartbreaking to imagine the pain that a parent must feel knowing that if they only had enough money, they could end their child’s suffering in a matter of hours. Ke Biu Doh and his parents dealt with this pain for five years and while raising three other children and working construction for 3 dollars a day. Ke Biu Doh’s mother cried every along with him every night until they found Operation Smile. To listen to his mother talk about her gratitude, it seems almost as difficult to imagine the happiness that she now feels as the stress and worry they lived with all those years has finally gone. She simply says, “God bless you.”
